1. Title: "A Seafront Salute to a Seagulls Legend: Peter Ward" This evocative photograph captures the iconic Brighton & Hove Albion Football Club (BHAFC) home ground, the American Express Community Stadium, bathed in the golden hues of a setting sun. The image serves as a poignant tribute to one of the club's most beloved ex-players, Peter Ward. Ward, a native of Brighton, began his professional football career with the Seagulls in 1970. He made his debut at the age of just 17, becoming the youngest player to represent BHAFC in the Football League. Over the next decade, Ward would become a key figure in the team, scoring 100 goals in 270 appearances. His impressive performances earned him a move to Arsenal in 1980, where he spent six seasons before retiring from professional football in 1986. Despite his time away from the Albion, Ward's connection to the club remained unbroken. He returned to Brighton in 1990, taking up the role of assistant manager under Jimmy Melia. Ward's impact was immediate, as he helped guide the team to promotion to the Football League in 1991. He later served as caretaker manager in 1993, leading the team to a historic FA Cup quarter-final appearance against Manchester United. In this photograph, the sun sets over the Sussex coastline, casting a warm glow on the stadium where Ward's football journey began. The image serves as a testament to his enduring legacy as a Seagulls legend and a symbol of the deep-rooted passion that connects generations of Brighton & Hove Albion supporters.
